Teen Center
The Teen Center is a nonprofit program within Brighton High School dedicated to supporting all Brighton students in their educational, athletic, and personal goals. We strive to create a safe, inclusive space where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered.
One of our core missions is to assist students facing home difficulties, abuse, or financial hardships by connecting them with the resources and care they need to succeed. Our services focus on meeting essential needs and fostering long-term well-being through a compassionate, welcoming environment.
Our services include:
Meals · Laundry Room · Showers · Safe Space · Resource Center · Comprehensive Support
We believe every student deserves the chance to feel safe, cared for, and supported. Our approach is built on three pillars:
Dignity – Meeting basic human needs with confidentiality, respect and privacy.
Support – Providing practical resources and emotional encouragement.
Belonging – Creating a community where students are seen, valued, and never alone.
The Teen Center operates Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m., and Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Hours may adjust based on student needs throughout the school year.
As a donation- and grant-funded program, the Teen Center relies on community generosity to continue serving students in need.
